It's my understanding from wait-staff in San Francisco that they tend to be horrible tippers too.
BMW drivers were the original 'yuppies' who initiated the ruining of the American Economy in the mid-80s and now we are suffering the same from their Trust-Funded Babies. |

How about coming back as a bunch of car-boots and just locking them all down ?? |

Speaking of Nevada, my wife and her friend went blasting out of Laughlin, headed for San Diego... At 120+ MPH. In the middle of the night. They were getting passed.
Oh God ! Nevada ! Driving across ! One of the worst experiences of my life. The only thing that got us through was Metallica's Black Album over and over again for 8 hours.
But West Texas is worse, especially the 2-lane highways. I had to stop driving and let my travel partner take over the driving. It's so flat, monotonous and hypnotic, the whole road and everything started spinning like a tunnel in an old amusement park ride. I almost wrecked the car.
ed: My driving partner said later: " I ain't never seen anything so flat since my ex-wife's chest."
Little dots on the horizon could turn into a farmhouse.....or a town. Absolutely no way to get any sense of scale. I don't know how they live out there everyday, it's so insane. |

I-10 through West Texas and to El Paso is a breeze.....a boring breeze, but a breeze nonetheless.
Yup, it's the further north route through Texas that one wants to avoid. We were only going that way so we could get to Santa Fe. We somehow made it from my parents home on the west side of Houston, up through Dallas, then west to Santa Fe.......in 14 hours.
Mainly because after my friend took over the driving I don't think we went less than 95 mph. He just wanted to get the hell out of there. |

Honestly I would just fly and rent than go through that kind of hell.
Nowhere to fly in that area really that avoids it. Lubbock is smack-dab in the middle of it all. Nothing really west of that until Santa Fe really.
The change in landscape as you literally cross the Texas/New Mexico border is amazing and a relief. Sudden greenery...with HILLS !!! |

True, but driving doesn't require you to be molested by a stranger before going anywhere.
Strange, that didn't happen to me when I flew from SFO to Floriderp last year. Not even when my medical grade herbage fell out onto the conveyor belt (true !). They literally just chuckled and moved me onward. |

Oh yes. I had heard it off and on for years, and had no idea it was in "Easy Rider" until I saw the film. |

meh
What is available in Floriderp is honestly really bad....sub-par. secret networks for medical grade and everything. Everyone here is still too rightfully paranoid to even mention it. The law here brooks no quarter at all. It's like being in absolutely another country compared to Cali. |
